the best party on Lefkada
The Southern Ionian Regatta has long been known for hosting some of the finest parties on Lefkada and this year will be no exception. Here is what you can expect in 2026.
thursday 17th September
Located in the south of the island of Lefkada, Syvota has turned from a sleepy fishing village to a yachting hotspot with a great selection of restaurants, cafes and bars along with plentiful pontoons. After the second day of our regatta, Syvota plays host to its biggest party of the year with live music and the awards ceremony for the regatta.
This year the main act are Nasty Pills , an Athens based band who deliver an electrifying mix of classic rock, pop covers, and infectious anthems guaranteed to get the crowd moving. Their dynamic sound and engaging presence make them the perfect soundtrack for an unforgettable evening to finish the regatta.
